City of Worthington
Worthington is a strong suburban community in the vibrant Columbus, Ohio region, ideally located at the northern crossroads of I-270, I-71 & SR 315, with easy access to, from and around the central Ohio region. History The earliest planned community in Ohio, Worthington was settled in 1803. Early leaders purchased 16,000 acres of land and planned the layout for the village. Worthington was platted as a New England-type village around a central public square, which was designated for religious and educational purposes, as well as a spot for community gatherings. This area remains today as our Village Green and still maintains the values of Worthington’s founders, while also anchoring one of Central Ohio’s most iconic downtown historic districts. Worthington Today Today Worthington remains committed to thoughtful planning and development. As a mature community, the focus is on planned redevelopment of existing properties and land. Worthington includes a mix of unique retail establishments and restaurants in our historic Old Worthington district, office and professional businesses in the Wilson Bridge Road and High Street corridors, and industrial and office in our Huntley Road corridor.
